Determinantal Generalizations of Instrumental Variables
Linear structural equation models relate the components of a random vector using linear interdependencies and Gaussian noise. Each such model can be naturally associated with a mixed graph whose vertices correspond to the components of the random vector.

Orthogonal Polynomials for Seminonparametric Instrumental Variables Model [PDF]
We develop an approach that resolves a {\it polynomial basis problem} for a class of models with discrete endogenous covariate, and for a class of econometric models considered in the work of Newey and Powell (2003), where the endogenous covariate is ...

Ophthalmic epidemiology is concerned with the prevalence, distribution and other factors relating to human eye disease. While observational studies cannot avoid confounding factors from interventions, human eye composition and structure are unique, thus,

Estimation of the Heteroskedastic Canonical Contagion Model with Instrumental Variables. [PDF]
Knowledge of contagion among economies is a relevant issue in economics. The canonical model of contagion is an alternative in this case. Given the existence of endogenous variables in the model, instrumental variables can be used to decrease the bias of

This study examined the impact of credit received on rural household clean cooking energy consumption. The study pays more attention to clean energies, such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and kerosene. Due to the endogenous issue of credit, we employed

Unbiased Instrumental Variables Estimation Under Known First-Stage Sign [PDF]
We derive mean-unbiased estimators for the structural parameter in instrumental variables models with a single endogenous regressor where the sign of one or more first stage coefficients is known.

Heart Rate Variability Control Using a Biofeedback and Wearable System
Heart rate variability is an important physiological parameter in medicine. This parameter is used as an indicator of physiological and psychological well-being and even of certain pathologies.

Two-stage least squares model averaging for instrumental variable models with exogenous variables
Instrumental variable (IV) methods are widely used to address unmeasured confoundings in structural equation models. In this paper, we focus on the settings where a possibly large number of instruments and a weak correlation between the instruments and ...

Causal Transmission in Reduced-Form Models
We propose a method to explore the causal transmission of an intervention through two endogenous variables of interest. We refer to the intervention as a catalyst variable.
